The court heard from the prosecutor that the 48-year-old had been caught breaking the limit while behind the wheel of a Peugeot in a 60 miles per hour variable speed limit zone on the M5 motorway in Worcestershire on February 13.

Davidson, of Hanbury Green, Shobdon, was fined £220, received three penalty points, and was disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence for six months for the offence, with magistrates saying a roads ban was obligatory due to repeat offending.

He was also ordered to pay prosecution costs of £90 and an £88 victim surcharge, which is used to help fund services supporting victims of crime.
